The handlebar grip is your key contact point for controlling your bike, having a grip suited to your individual needs is hugely important but often overlooked. Renthal developed their Lock-On grip with four unique compounds to give you, the rider the widest choice for any grip.

Renthal Kevlar grips feature their most advanced compound to date. Millions of randomly aligned Kevlar particles are suspended in the base material. As the grip is used, more of these particles are exposed, resisting wear whilst retaining a soft and tacky feel.

This is Renthal's ultimate grip compound. Due to the plastic core of lock-on grips, Renthal also developed an all new Super Comfort compound, this is aimed at riders whose main criteria for a grip is the softest possible feel.

Renthal Lock-On grips feature CNC machined aluminium collars which are permanently integrated into the central core. This eliminates any movement between these sections which can develop over time.

Whilst they're not the cheapest, I have been impressed by the Renthal Lock On Grips. After reading other reviews I went for the Kevlar compound and they're working well. I've got them fitted to a singlespeed, I'm a big lad and have to heave on the bars on some of the uphills to keep the gear turning. The Renthal grips are rock solid and haven't slipped at all. They are also comfy and grippy - I did a four hour ride in the wet off-road on rigid forks and my hands were fine. Can't say anything about longevity at this early stage but in all other respects I think they are excellent.
The Tweeks service was super easy and quick too.

I bought the grips in medium and they feel good to hold and your hands aren't are going to slip of them easily the only bad point i could think about them is that after a about three month of using them you take your hands off and there is small bits of grip on them.
